Hello all! I was heavy into saltwater and reefs in particular in the early 2000's and once kiddos came along....well....you know. They're grown now :grinning-face:

Anyway, all my systems were larger back then and had a nice side business selling frags and even setup a few systems for people. I had always wanted a smaller nano-style tank so that's what I'm starting back with, BioCube 32g is being set up today. I plan on a mostly reef tank with lots of inverts and likely 2-3 fish (wife requirement).

I've forgotten most of everything over the past 20 years and am sure the technology and methods have greatly evolved. I already see LEDs have finally become viable over the old metal halides (thankfully!). No more giant powerheads hanging in all corners to get flow.

I look forward to learning from everyone in a hobby that dearly loved and missed.
